Les 2 Alpes Reviews & Ratings

Overall not a bad resort, Sadly without realising we booked a week that had a festival so our thoughts of the runs being quiet were quickly proved otherwise. Lots of variation between different runs, sadly not a huge area for off piste when we went, but looking at the terrain it looks like it could be good with a fresh powder dump.

We really enjoyed our week at Les deux Alpes with excellent snow (kept by the shadowed late afternoons) and easy access to a consistently good quality of advanced/intermediate runs right across the mountains and with moguls spread around and not all pisted out.
There was a mixed gondola/chair lift from back of hotel straight up to the heart of matters, with less busy black straight down at night to avoid the busy blue. The lift also took us straight to the helicopter station for c80 day return to Alpe D'huez... an exciting and great value experience and extension to the ski area... though we found ADH more crowded and the snow was worse being more exposed to hot late day sunshine. We had a good mountakn lunch but were glad to be back in Les 2 Aples for the skiing.
Tbe resort was like a proper resort mountain town with a good and varied range of affordable restaurants don't feel worried if going b&B or s/c. Plenty of bars and lots of ski shops spread through the town.
Our hotel(de la Valentine) was simple but comfortable and very friendly. They had a great boot/ski room and they put on various small treats at the bar or entertainments to keep topping up our feeling of being looked after all week.
The saying it is an alp and a half is true in that most skiing is on ine side of the valley but the ability to link giod varied runs around several tops make rhat side excellent. The other is still worth popping over to in the morning for a variation, great view and a nice lunch in the sun
All round a great week.

Visited with a group of skiers of varying skill/ experience and everyone enjoyed themselves. There was plenty to do outside of skiing but we only had 1 really bad weather day. Food is great and variety of places for drinks including pubs, bars and a wine bar. Will definitely be visiting again

I went over new years so it was busy, but that was expected.
The resort was easy to navigate and the runs were nice.
The queues for the main gondola were very long, but we found a route up using chairlifts and easy blues and greens to make the morning more enjoyable.

Really good if you are with a group of mixed abilities. They have a great Apres but I found some of the eating out options slightly lacking. I

Good snow quality for end of the year / start of Jan. Mostly green / blue and some red runs - very few black runs and conditions on most of them werent great

Few restaurants around the slopes and après was limited

Overall very cute town though with decent restaurants and bars

Great family holiday in Airbnb. Well set up for skiing and ski school. Easy hire of equipment.
Good variety of runs for all levels. Glacier makes for extra fun. Good après ski and restaurants. Equally good supermarkets for self catering.

Such a fun ski resort!
Cant wait to go back.
Night life is amazing.
Would recommend to all ski levels

A pretty resort but small and not a vast amount of runs. We went for New Years Eve and it was a great atmosphere for the new year.

I went to Les 2 Alps with a group of friends as part of a festival. This meant we were there earlier than the usual ski season would start.

Im a novice skier, and although they opened half the resort up, this only included one green run for me to try. It became icy super by day 3 and I was hoping theyd open up the other side of the resort which had tree runs and green runs - unfortunately apparently this event was too early in the season.

I really enjoyed trying to learn but I think I would have chosen a different resort as a beginner if Id known this would be the case.

L2A is a charming, medium-sized resort and ski area.

The recently replaced gondola system speeds you to the top of the glacier, with over 1500m of vertical climb. From there, there's a lot to explore, including some challenging near-piste descents.

For beginners, intermediates, families, and recreational skiers, there's more than enough to keep you busy all week.

In the resort and up the mountain, the quality and variety of dining available is fantastic, from the best pizza I've ever had, despite being served from a hole in the wall, to Michelin recognised restaurants.

Not too far from Lyon and Geneva, not too expensive, a glacier: all in all you'll probably have a lovely week.

Went for Christmas, surprisingly few queues for the lifts, many of the lifts are fast and fairly new, obviously there is the Brand new Jandri that takes you almost to the top of the resort. Easy to navigate way around, cant really get lost as everything ends up in the main town and everything is well connected. Not much in the way of tree lined runs, and a few of the greens and blues are quite narrow and get very busy towards the end of the day with beginners which make them difficult to ski properly. Runs generally well groomed. Would I go back? Not sure I would, if you want wide cruisey blues and reds this is not the place to go, better off in Les Arcs or La Plagne or even round the corner in Alpe dHuez.

Estive no rise festival 2024, nao tenho palavras pra descrever a experiencia foi tudo incrível, resort gigante com variedade de coisas restaurantes deliciosos

Really fun resort, the snow wasnt great when I went but still had a lot of fun skiing up on the glacier. Really good apres ski bars and very good food

Good all round resort
Sunny slopes
Plenty of bars and restaurants
Good lift system

Downside is only a couple of runs right back down to resort is not much snow do they get very busy

Smithys Tavern is THE PLACE TO BE on nights out - constant events and right by The Avalanche club it truly is one of a kind, not to mention the food upstairs and incredible staff. Hit the umbrella bar for the vibe straight off the slopes - The Spot does the best burgers in France - The Polar Bear has the best atmosphere - The Red Frog always has the game on.

We had such a good time here, our accommodation was just outside the resort but the local bus was right outside our hotel and took us straight to the resort. We took sandwiches which we could make from the hotel out with us for a few snacks.
DJs in the bars at the top of the hills were amazing. Such good vibes.
Definitely worth a visit.

visited for rise festival and had the best week of my life. The ski was great, the atmosphere was electric and i will certainly be returning

Came with a large group with varying skill levels and everyone was able to enjoy themselves. Lots of great runs and brilliant snow.

Food & drink options on the mountain are great.

This is a great resort to visit if you're not too keen on long coach journeys up the side of mountains. It was a very quick transfer with a nice journey up. Nice relaxed snowboarding. I particularly liked the bowling alley in the evening.
